Quoted from JohnSteed:

Thanks mkael - This is an interesting web page with videos. I certainly could do the repair (I've repaired MANY pcbs in the past....). I am just not up to it any more. Besides, the cost of the parts plus the time involved would be more than just buying a new board. There are something like 20 components that should be replaced in the power portion of the DMD driver board.

The repair kit is $10.00 from a great vendor and takes less than a few hours of repair time. A new board is $100.00 or more. I would take the kit option. Here is the link.

Quoted from JohnSteed:

Thanks eyemred2u! It always takes me longer and nothing ever goes smoothly the first time around. That's why these board repair guys charge upwards of $80 to repair the boards then shipping then wait then something else goes wrong. Just my opinion.... I used to repair the boards all the time. I even did them for friends or anyone who would send them to me. It was fun then, now it is a PITA for me.

I just put the info out there. I know the feeling on board work. Sometimes I do it and more often I pay others or buy a new board, just depends on my time and mood.
